5Kayaking Italian style
Our tour guide Alice was wonderful! We had fun - easy kayak along beautiful coast and we learned many interesting facts about the history of the area... plus saw some sea life, small waterfall and pirate caves. As always good wine and bread enjoyed- in the water!
5Awesome experience
Excellent experience - so much fun. Never kayaked that far and the guides were great. I’ve walked the cinque terra - so was wonderful to see from the water. Highly recommend - no crowds on the water
5Experience colorful Monterosso & Vernazza from the water while staying active & learning
Our three hour kayak tour was a terrific experience and was a great way to see the colorful coastal towns of Monterosso and Vernazza! Lydia, our main guide, helped us with our basic kayaking skills and navigation so that we felt safe and were able to optimize the fun in our adventure. She narrated natural and manmade points of interest like sea caves and fortresses and paddled at our pace. The weather and waves were mild and perfect for paddling out for a morning of sightseeing. We were able to get out and have some gelato in Vernazza before rowing back and receiving some entertaining knowledge about the marine life in the area - like sardines, sea tomatoes, algae, and plankton from Alizia, our other guide. We had three adults of varying ages and a teen on two tandem kayaks, and we all had a wonderful time - it ended up just being our family on the tour. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to be active and see the sights in Cinque Terre or in Portofino, since Lydia provides tours there too. Molto Bene!
5La Vita Dolce plus!
Daniele and Lily were the perfect hosts! They were full of knowledge of the area, very tuned into our needs and shortcomings (two older women with only some kayak experience), and answered all of our questions with thoughtful, complete answers. You might learn since farming has taken a down turn in Cinque Terre, wildlife, including Italian wolves, is making a comeback. The weather was perfect, the company was perfect, the wine was perfect. Enchanted afternoon!
5Epic grand finale
The scenery is just outrageously stunning. We loved seeing a different view of the towns. The secret swimming cove was delightful. A++ experience. With a lovely suprise at the end!
5Fun water adventure
The activity was well run and very enjoyable with a very helpful and informative guide. The stop for a swim and glass of wine was a lot of fun. It was great to see the coast from a different perspective.

About Cinque Terre
The Cinque Terre are five colourful fishing villages strung along the steep Ligurian coast, linked by trails, trains and boats above the sea.
The Cinque Terre are Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore, five villages on a rugged stretch of the Ligurian coast in north-west Italy. Pastel houses cling to cliffs above tiny harbours, and centuries of dry-stone terraces climb the slopes, planted with vines, olives and lemon trees. The coast is a national park and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Top-ranked sights in Cinque Terre: Riomaggiore, Cinque Terre National Park (Parco Nazionale delle Cinque Terre), Vernazza.
